#they're all queer tbh

The Duffer Brothers trying so hard to set up straight romances in Stranger Things. My brothers in Christ, you've basically presented us with the Hawkins GSA here.

I can't remember if I've posted abt this before but regardless: I'm sorry but I really and truly cannot get behind the idea that there is any wide-scale societal "pressure for trans men to be feminine" or "to be twinks" or whatever. You are either conflating a very small online community's beauty standard (usually some kind of transmasc pseudo-appropriation of "femboy" aesthetics, which yes, are often Bad and regressive and fetishized and etc.) with Mainstream Society, or confusing society not wanting trans men to transition with "wanting trans men to be feminine", which are certainly not the same thing. Ultimately if a cis person believes there is any validity to the concept of being trans (i.e. not a Posie Parker-esque "there's no such thing as a trans person" type), they are more likely to think that trans men should be like as masc and buff and hairy as possible or whatever bc that's what cis people think men look like and it's easier for a lot of people to recognize someone who Looks Masc as a man. It is difficult sometimes to see derision of trans guys who are Too Feminine and Not Hairy Enough or whatever (which is not always something someone has control over btw) as anything but "this is Skye who I think is a confused little girl because Skye does not pass" slightly restyled for 2023 "filthcore fagdykes" or whatever lol

got queerbaited into reading a book by chatgpt. is this rock bottom

It's not necessarily a knock on ppl but man there's something about being in a fandom and seeing people who's lineup of favorite ships are all the most. Like. Hetbait ships? You know what I mean?

And it's like one or two you can go "yeah I get it, there's at least some canon backing to it" but when that's all they're into and it leaves you going like. Where's your imagination dude these are all so... basic. Like it's not even necessarily that they're straight ships it's that they're the most surface level things you could come up with. And some of this is dependent on the way they treat their ships ofc but still

And its not even that they come across as anti-queer (at least outwardly) its just the general feeling that the idea of something that isn't a heterosexual romance even crosses their minds. They live in a little vanilla bubble, and you're watching them floating along, wondering how they can't be so so bored

man I swear I'm not actually saying that roy/keeley/jamie in some configuration should be endgame, my brain just keeps connecting the dots a certain way and I swat it back like no! that's called a headcanon!

[troonwolf]

legitimately everytime a new thing became tumblr popular over the last ten years I’d be like “looks like shit isn’t even actually gay” and I gained such a pavlovian response towards Ignoring everything you guys like for it being boring and not actually gay, that when you guys got into actually gay shows (ofmd etc) I didn’t believe they were actually gay and just continued to ignore you until I saw a gifset of two men actually physically kissing

Poor Ame I've made her go through this train crash three times cause I keep resetting my game to get passwords I want and get my starter again

[stillflight]

We can say "I'm upset that John Mulaney turned out to be transphobic because I thought he was pretty funny" without forgetting that his comedy has always included very ableist and antisemitic jokes, yeah?

[squishosaur]

[variousqueerthings]

the fun of having put out the "bj's moustache is gay culture" post while also headcanoning first and foremost that whatever bj is, it's not actually gay but something way funnier and more fucked up

my partner is most likely an egg as he has been saying things like "i wish i was a lesbian" "i wish i had been born a girl" "i hate having a dick" "all my built characters in rpgs are women" "feminine clothing is so much more interesting than masculine clothing" "if i was a girl would you love me more" "I'm sorry I'm not a girl" like babe I'm starting to think you are. it's been 7 years of this.
